Reverend Askins officiated our wedding on Seneca Lake, and we had such a positive experience! He was extremely professional and offered us multiple different scripts to use and met with us through zoom prior to the ceremony. We would highly recommend Rev Askins to anyone looking for a professional officiant!

Father Askins was incredible. He made our day absolutely perfect. He helped ease both our nerves which we so greatly appreciated. He is very responsive and also easy to work with. Him and his wife are both just so sweet. Before we met, we had spoken on the phone and I could immediately tell he was going to be our officiant. I would highly recommend him!!

Rev. Askins was beyond fantastic! Our wedding day was the first time we met him, but it somehow felt like we had known him forever. Rev. Askins is very responsive and went above and beyond for us. He walked us through the wedding program over the phone since we didn't have rehearsal, which he did not have to do. Not to mention, he also brought us a very special handmade gift. We highly recommend him to officiate your wedding!
